A prominent speaker and seminar leader, Dr. Resnick is a regular presenter at professional conferences, including the Society for the Scientific Study of Sexuality (SSSS), the American Association for Sex Educators, Counselors, and Therapists (AASECT), and the Association for the Advancement of Gestalt Therapy (AAGT).

Since 2001, Dr. Resnick has been studying interpersonal neurobiology and attachment theory, particularly the work of the world-renowned neuropsychologist, Dr. Allan Schore. For the last seven years, she has been in a peer study group with Dr. Schore along with a stimulating group of colleagues studying a wide range of research studies and theoretical papers that delve deeply into the neurobiology of emotional distress and trauma. This work has lent enormous support for Dr. Resnick’s long-term body-based, present-centered and experiential Gestalt therapy practice.

Dr. Resnick served as past President of the Western Region of the Society for the Scientific Study of Sexuality, is a Diplomate of the American Board of Sexology, and an AASECT Certified Sex Therapist, CE Provider, and Clinical Supervisor.

Dr. Resnick received her Ph.D. in clinical psychology from Indiana University, interned at Langley Porter Neuropsychiatric Institute at UC Medical Center in San Francisco, and was an assistant professor of psychology at San Diego and San Jose State Colleges.

My work has been more than a professional and intellectual study; it’s a lifetime commitment. My personal insights have informed my therapeutic approach. The insights I’ve gained at the office and in studying the research have helped my partner and me at home. My books are the culmination of all of the work I have done so far to integrate everything I know about love sex, and the body.

Taking a relationship to a new level of satisfaction entails more than just resolving problems. As people work on their insecurities and come to a loving and trusting place in their relationship, the emphasis in life becomes not fixing what’s not working, but enhancing what they have.
